will result in a complete change of all microsoft specific files
because of the new line issue.
is this enough problem?
so why don't use --strip-trailing-cr (diffutils) or something similar
to avoid this?
So as long as msvc-dev does accept eol=lf input files, storing them as
eol=lf files is without issue?
